I am doing a project for school and I need to know how to make Ancient Greece Chitons. I don't want them to be too complicated, but not so whoever is wearing them is nearly naked. Does anyone know any good sites or have directions on how to make them? If you do, please tell me.
Here i go on caps lock fit again.NOTHING THAT WAL MART SELLS QUALIFIES AS A BIKE much less a mountain bike. About the only place you could use a bike such as this is on pavement. These bikes are not intended for off road use and to do so would be stupid to say the least! What makes this a mountain bike you ask? It looks like one or has the appearance of one and that is about it!!!!! I wouldnt put my worst enemies son on this bike- you will be better off walking! Now that that is out of my system, I do know that not everyone has deep pockets to buy what ever they want and if this is the case then you will buy it and see that the quality you have is not even worth recycled material. This bike is heavy for a hardtail and the components are less than crap.Best Advise: save your money, about $300 if you can and go find your nearest bike shop, that is one of those places that sell ONLY BICYCLES. This way you are getting not top of the line but an entry level bike that will be fixed and built properly from the start and will give you the proper size bike to fit your build too. These bike shaped objects from wal mart and the like only come in one size, 16 frames and it may or may not fit you properly?! Bike shops have many different sizes to choose from and one will fit you like a glove the first time and you will WANT to ride it. Wal mart bikes tend to rust while sitting in the store too, go figure? Edit: this is likely a current wal mart model I believe.
Personally rather than V-brakes I would go for disc brakes. The reasoning behind this is that the rims are going to get wet and muddy thereby decreasing their efficiency. 3-4 travel on the front-forks is about right. Remember to get the all-important lid (safety helmet), gloves and other protective equipment - doing it for fun is one thing, competing is another. Be safe.
